Tin Man

Glitch is DG and Azkadelia's father. They both resemble him and the Queen was much closer to him than they ever show her being with Ahamo. There is a big portrait of him standing at her side, but none of her with Ahamo. Or that Ahamo is DG's father, but Ambrose is Azkedellia's.

Due to a remnant of the original story, DG and Cain's relationship is subject to this. It was originally an outright romance but anything too romantic was downplayed in the miniseries. So some view DG as a potential Second Love for Cain once he gets over Adora's death. Others view her as a surrogate daughter for him.

The failed pilot episode Lost In Oz used some of the same ideas, particularly the villain being possessed by the original Wicked Witch.

The real world house for DG is later used in Once Upon a Time as the Storybrooke home for the Wicked Witch of the West. And Anna Galvin - who plays Lavender Eyes - would later appear as Cruella's mother in the series.

Ho Yay: Look, it's got Alan Cumming in it. And Glitch and Cain talk about dancing and Glitch tells Cain he makes him feel like girls at balls used to, and Cain makes him remember who he is by calling him "Sweetheart."

Magnificent Bitch: Azkadelia. She overthrows her mother, tricks DG into leading her to the Emerald, defeats the Tin Men and almost succeeds in her plan to trap the OZ in eternal darkness. The only reason she doesn't is because she does a HeelFace Turn, not because the heroes defeat her.

It runs in the family; while the queen is a more benevolent version of this trope, she counts with her plan to "banish" Ahamo, hide DG and implant memories and codewords to make her come back at the right time, as well as hiding the Emerald.

Everyone calls her DG. Everyone, all the time. Even her mother, in extreme times of crisis, only refers to her by initials. Because the incredibly obvious not-so-clever reference her name is would be ruined if they actually gave her a name. So in one of the film's climactic scenes the queen can only say "Deeeeegeeeee!"

Narm Charm: "You guys are out of your tiny minds" is silly but still also quite funny.
